(b) If the terms of a trust confer upon a person other than the settlor of a revocable trust power to direct certain actions of the trustee, the trustee shall act in accordance with an exercise of the power.
(c) The terms of a trust may confer upon a trustee or other person, as provided in article 7 of this act, a power to direct the modification or termination of the trust.
(d) A person, other than a beneficiary, who holds a power to direct is a fiduciary who, as such, is required to act in good faith with regard to the purposes of the trust and the interests of the beneficiaries.
